Dr Who actor Colin Baker has confirmed he will appear at a Kent festival.

The sixth Time Lord will meet fans at the Sci-fi By The Sea convention at Herne Bay Football Club on Sunday, June 16.

A contestant on last year’s I’m A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here, he will join the memorabilia from Star Wars, Robocop, Alien and Predator movies going on show.

Organised by the BayPromoTeam, member Gerald McCarthy said: "People are very excited to have a proper Doctor Who coming down.

"Sometimes these announcements have a knock on effect for other guests, who ask who else is coming down before they attend.

"We already have two tardis’, seven or eight Daleks and some Cybermen coming along, so Colin tops it off for us on that front."
